Chapter 717: Dragon-locking Formation
Whoosh!
The last minor round of the third round has begun!
Hearing the words of the Law Enforcement Great Elder of the Main Hall, all disciples felt a surge of excitement.
Using an array to suppress the cultivation of the numerous disciples and battling with Level 1 King Martial cultivation,
this will undoubtedly be a splendid spectacle.
Everyone knows that the power clash in the last minor round will be most advantageous for Xiao Ye.
Because after the suppression of their cultivation, all disciples have lost their edge, and Xiao Ye, who can defeat Jun Shitian
within the same realm, represents an unmatched force within the Holy Palace at this level.
Xiao Ye's entry into the Main Hall is now almost a certainty, so the remaining spot must arise from the other hundred disciples of the Heavenly Hall.
"Fight!"
"The last spot will definitely be mine!"
"I have toiled in cultivation every day just to enter the Main Hall, I absolutely cannot fail!"
...
The hundred disciples, clearly having foreseen this, have eyes ablaze with fervor, and their war intent reaches the heavens!
No one is confident that they can defeat Xiao Ye under the same cultivation conditions, but they are confident they can defeat the other competitors!
Which of those who have made it to the last step are not exceptionally excellent disciples of the Heavenly Hall?
Whether in terms of cultivation or strength, they are both extremely formidable, ranking at the forefront of the entire Taiyi Palace, and are full of confidence in themselves!
"This is the Dragon-locking Formation created by the Ten Law Enforcement Elders of our Main Hall. As long as a martial artist is within the Emperor Martial Realm, no matter who they are, once they enter the formation, their cultivation will be suppressed to the early stage of King Martial Level 1!"
The Law Enforcement Great Elder of the Main Hall walked on air and finally landed in a specific area of the square.
Xiao Ye looked over and saw that in the void of this area, there was actually a faint mist lingering, and even the void was twisted, as if filled with a strong magnetic field.
Xiao Ye immediately understood that the region must have been affected by the Dragon-locking Formation.
Characters like Jun Shitian, whose cultivation reached the Emperor Martial Realm, can use secret techniques to suppress their cultivation and fall from the Emperor to the King realm.
The Absolute Emperor who had fought with Xiao Ye was the same; he also had control over a special secret technique that allowed him to suppress his cultivation to the same realm as his opponent.
And these disciples of the Heavenly Hall, including Xiao Ye, do not possess such secret techniques and can only suppress their cultivations with outside assistance.
Clearly, it is with this in mind that the Law Enforcement Elders of the Main Hall created the Dragon-locking Formation, to aid in the suppression of the disciples' cultivations.
"Activate the Dragon-locking Formation!"
At this moment, the Grand Elder of the Main Hall flew into the air. With a series of swift movements, he drew Mysterious arcs in the void, then formed a Seal Technique and fiercely pushed towards the ground.
Boom!
Xiao Ye felt the ground trembling vehemently, as though an earthquake had struck.
Then he saw the ground suddenly light up, as if blood was flowing through the lines that converged into a giant pattern. From it, a white immense light shot straight into the Nine Heavens, creating a massive column of light that tore through the clouds and the Heavenly Dome.
Next, from that complex and vast pattern, Yin Yang Qi intertwined like two True Dragons, emitting a resounding dragon's roar that shattered the entire region.
A very particular aura swept out from within.
Xiao Ye could feel the King Martial Power within him vibrating as if it encountered some fearsome being, rapidly diminishing.
"What powerful suppression!"
Xiao Ye felt a heavy burden, as if carrying a mountain, and he couldn't help but be astonished.
He had not even entered the Dragon-locking Formation yet, and already felt such tremendous pressure. What would it be like once inside?
He looked around and found other disciples of the Heavenly Hall in no better state than himself, all pale-faced and filled with shock.
"The formation is now active. The hundred disciples qualified for the final battle, enter now!" declared the Law Enforcement Great Elder of the Main Hall with authority.
"Yes!"
A hundred disciples roared in unison, their bodies soared into the air, heading toward the area covered by the Dragon-locking Formation.
This was their final battle, a matter of whether they could enter the Main Hall and become esteemed Devilish Disciples; no one was willing to give up.
Luckily, the area covered by the Dragon-locking Formation was huge, enough to accommodate a hundred disciples with plenty of room to spare.
"Ah!"
Under everyone's watchful eyes, the hundred disciples of the Heavenly Hall had just flown into the formation, when they felt the Yin and Yang Qi, like two dragons entering their bodies, rapidly devouring their King Martial Power.
Many disciples exclaimed in surprise, unable to resist, and could only let the King Martial Power within them visibly weaken at a swift pace.
The same scene happened to Xiao Ye.
Even though he carried the Four Great King Realms, the Dragon-locking Formation was impartial, rapidly devouring the excess King Martial Power within him.
Mid-level King Martial Level 4!
Early Stage of King Martial Level 4!
Late Stage of King Martial Third Level!
...
Xiao Ye's cultivation plummeted until it reached the early stage King Martial, where it finally stopped. The intertwining dragons formed by the Yin Yang Qi also ceased their movements, lurking within them.
"What a formidable array!" Xiao Ye inwardly exclaimed.
It was his first encounter with such a mysterious formation, wonderful in a way that, aside from suppressing their cultivation, it caused them no harm.
"No, my King Body is not suppressed!"
Xiao Ye carefully sensed and then became elated.
Because the Dragon-locking Formation only suppressed his cultivation but did nothing to his King Body.
It must be known that his King Body had already reached Great Success. Relying solely on his greatly successful King Body, he could defeat a martial artist in the Late Stage of King Martial Level 4!
Therefore, this assessment was all too easy for him!
"Now you begin to fight. It is forbidden to harm the lives of your fellow disciples during combat. Anyone who falls out of the coverage area of the Dragon-locking Formation will be deemed a failure in the assessment. The last two disciples remaining within the Dragon-locking Formation will be the winners!"
At this point, the Law Enforcement Great Elder of the Main Hall, seeing that everyone was ready, announced loudly.
It's started!
Hearing the explanation of the Law Enforcement Great Elder of the Main Hall, all disciples simultaneously became vigilant, watching their surroundings.
According to these rules, at this moment they had no friends, only enemies!
The brutal competition rules meant that friendships became fleeting here, and they had to do their utmost to eliminate those around them to seize the biggest opportunity for themselves!
